I am in the process of reading "Desiring God" by John Piper, i have come upon one of those pivotal books that will forever change my life, you know you hear people say that book changed my life , well it has happened, and i wouldnt of thunken it! So i would advise everyone to read the novel , question it, wrestle with it in your emotions, but let God use it to change your heart, your perspective and your life.

Here is my heart mouth's mutterings to new found revelation from the book while at MAymont :

All heaven
All creation
All history
All matter
All time m....o.....v.....i.....n.....g towards this one goal
the glorification of Your Name
What human can comprehend or enter in into this great Mystery?
Your great plan,
Oh wonder to much for my mind and to spirit to percieve or conceive.
That...
All time
All things
All acts forordained for your GLORY
The creation of man
the fall of man
the entrance of sin into the world
the choosing of the Jews as your people
the death of Christ
Inclusion of Gentiles with the new covenant
All acts of History
past , present and future
whether in
cAlaMity
or destruction
prosperity ,war or peace
You have ordained for the glory of your name.
Oh Wisdom unequal ,
greatness unfathomable
patience unwavering
joy unshakable
for Your plans are never frustrated
how worthy You are
Yes , angels and men caused to bow low at Your greatness
holiness
and righteousness
I only see as in a dimmed glass
a mere reflection
I shall be forever peering
forever marveling
eternally worshipping
